I confirm that the department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person in question on the 13th April 2015.
The application was referred to a local social welfare inspector on 22 June 2015 for assessment of the level of care being provided, assessment of means and confirmation that all the conditions for receipt of carer’s allowance are satisfied.
Once the inspector has completed their investigation and submitted the report, a deciding officer will process the claim without delay and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
